Description

This interface is used for org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Block devices that are loop devices.

Method Details

The Delete() method

Delete (IN  a{sv} options);

Deletes the loop device.

IN a{sv} options:

Options (currently unused except for standard options).

The SetAutoclear() method

SetAutoclear (IN  b     value,
              IN  a{sv} options);

Setter for the "Autoclear" property. Since this may require authentication and thus may fail, it is implemented this way instead of the property being writable.

`IN b value`:	The new value of autoclear.
`IN a{sv} options`:	Options (currently unused except for standard options).

Property Details

The "BackingFile" property

BackingFile  readable   ay

A path to the file that is backing the block device or blank if unknown.

The "Autoclear" property

Autoclear  readable   b

If TRUE, the kernel will automatically clear the loop device when the last closer closes the device. This typically happens when the loop device is unmounted.

The "SetupByUID" property

SetupByUID  readable   u

The id of the user who set up the loop device or 0 if set up by root or not through udisks.
